   So WP is afraid I'll shoplift articles? Because the purpose of CCTV cameras is security, not marketing.

   I still have mine from 2012 (I think I installed Dirty Unicorns on it though, which breathed new life). It still works perfectly, but I have no idea what to do with it and it's just sitting there along with my Surface RT. I'll nev

   I haven't tried partially disabling Siri (always completed disabled it or fully enabled everything), but I thought the "Hey Siri" feature worked only when plugged in? Maybe I'm confusing it with a different feature.

   Unfortunately it requires Siri to be enabled even if the shortcut itself doesn't use it (like when I want to trigger it with touch). I've disabled Siri on my phone and watch because I never use it and there's a massive batter

   Does YouTube allow unlisted/private live streams? That would be an easy hack to achieve something like this.

   Let me rephrase your question: Is there a way to ask Facebook to completely change their business model and lose all revenue?

    Thanks a lot for adding that! This is a bit offtopic: (OP here) the reason why I was even reading Atlassian's terms is to understand what kind of language is used in enterprise self-hosted software because I need one for my own product

    What interest rates do rich people like him get? Is the concept of charging interest still valid at that level or is it all bartering of favours?

    I created https://status.commento.io/ for Commento [1] a few days ago and I'm open to open-sourcing the software under MIT if there's enough interest (I don't want to go through the hassle otherwise; and it

    This is also very similar to the clause that allowed Larry Ellison to allegedly try to have a professor fired for benchmarking Oracle: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=15886333 I was just going through theirs (and other

    I'll never completely trust a software product, especially communication ones. However, I'll blindly put all my money on protocols. A protocol is indestructible, it's just a document. It doesn't need VC funding to keep s

    In transactions, is it typical to just create new stock such that the newly created stock is 1.225% of the final total? Would the previous investors agree to diluting their stock like that? Or is it common to sell from a common pool of stoc

    I can't imagine the impact is significant even if we consider two degrees of acquaintances (you tell someone to not use Chrome and they tell someone else).

    Care to explain why Firefox is the most unsafe? I've been using it for a while now and the built-in privacy protections are great (would be better if they were on by default, but hey, we have this at least).

    $10M-$20M is more than sufficient for a few generations (in a 100-200 years, our current understanding of the concept of money might not even be relevant, so it's pointless to plan for anything more than that). Anything more is just th

    Can you even train artistic talent? Doesn't it require a natural gift that you're born with? Not to belittle astronauts, but space travel training is more teachable than true art.
